Peter Hammill - Chameleon In The Shadow Of The Night flac album

Chameleon In The Shadow Of The Night" from 1973 can be seen as the first "real" Peter Hammill solo album, the predecessor "Fool's Mate" being a collection of pop songs. With "Chameleon" Peter Hammill digested the split of Van der Graaf Generator. The first song of the album, "German Overalls", is one of the saddest songs I've ever heard, giving an impression of some of the reasons for the dissolution of the band.

The Silent Corner and the Empty Stage is the third album by British singer-songwriter Peter Hammill. It was released on Charisma Records in 1974, during a hiatus in the activities of Hammill's progressive rock band Van der Graaf Generator. However, like many of Hammill's albums of this period, all the members of Van der Graaf Generator perform on the recording, blurring the distinction between solo and group work.

Original album released as Charisma CAS 1067 in 1973. Recorded in February and March 1973 at Sofa Sound, Sussex and Rockfield Studios, Monmouthshire. Mixed at Trident Studios, London W1. Digital remastering at Sofa Sound. Analogue to digital transfers at Abbey Road Studios, London.

The long-awaited remastering of the Peter Hammill/Van Der Graaf Generator catalog got off to a powerful start, almost overloading the team's earliest albums with spicy bonus tracks, unreleased gems, and unimagined treasures. Unfortunately, fans' expectations might have been overloaded as well. Chameleon in the Shadow of the Night, Hammill's second solo album, still stands among his most archetypal collections, with the schizophrenic duel between his most tender instincts and the apocalyptic trauma that was the best of Van Der Graaf
